In the historical Tumringer Wirtshaus Mättle, it is possible to dine where the first federal president of the Federal Republic of Germany once mused over policy. After a turbulent history, this restaurant with its rich legacy is once again catering for guests on its ground floor, and also invites them to the Theodor-Keller basement for enjoyable times and festivities.

A comprehensive renovation project has imbued the ground floor and the cellar area with a sleek, linear atmosphere. For the Theodor-Keller, durlum supplied an appropriate ceiling-lighting solution. The multidirectional, pastel blue TICELL open-cell ceiling defines a visual contrast to the exposed quarried stone walls and with its “woven” texture, it creates an aesthetic sense of lightness. The new ventilation system is concealed by the ratio of cell height to dimensions.

The PUNTEO-J60 LED downlights deliver precisely the right lighting to these premises. The challenge was to position the luminaires flexibly so they could be adapted to suit different lighting scenarios in these spaces. This problem was resolved using magnetic rails. This enables every LED spotlight to be removed easily and relocated in a different position.

Wirtshaus Mättle combines the modern with the historical, creating an unforgettable interior design that invites you to take your time over a fine meal.
